lyrics

If I weren't crazy, I'd be insane
Laughing at you every move
Come on, hit me harder
Every blow seems to fill my dark, dark delight
Watch as I creep and steal everything, everything that you love
Aren't you amused? Aren't you amused of this devious plot of mine?

If you expect to play against me, you'd better be prepared to be dealt from the bottom of the deck
I always have a way to leave an everlasting smile on your face
It'd be funny if it weren't so pathetic. I think I'll laugh anyways

Can you hear the sound of demonic laughter?
First impressions are never good, But I think I found a brand new playmate

Welcome to the madhouse
This should be the funnest night of my life
I've got everything I want in the palm of my hand

Something tells me that this joke is almost over
But before I go, I think there's time for one last laugh

This disease I've got will kill you from the inside
You'll feel my pain, you'll taste my suffering
At least we know we'll leave on a good note
People everywhere will remember my name

You'll all know that I'm the greatest that ever lived
You'll all laugh and smile when this is over

Wretched Existence
by Before The Harvest

supported by 5 fans who also own “Welcome To The Madhouse”

Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson

Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here. mourner

I stayed away from this EP for awhile, because at the time of the release it seemed like every "djent" band was copying the Egyptian/oriental sound. Overall, I'm glad I revisited this album, technical aspect of the music mixed with the quality of sound and the br00tal vocals makes this record really spectacular!!! fathead dog
